Teatro Il Maggiore, Verbania

Performance + dance
131 URBAN RENDEZ VOUS
Sara Marasso
➣ Platform CROSS Residence
The performance is born in urban spaces after a period of residence on the spot and involves citizens in the creative process and wonders precisely on the relationship between the inhabitants and the city in which they live. Three dancers, a musician and a double bass, meet in a town square in the folk district of the city of Verbania. A rendez-vous during which the artists confront and dialogue and at the same time transform the space, postponing a different vision.
The performance will be constructed starting from a dramaturgical fil rouge that will question the multiple dimension of the individual, of the multiple facets that every human being shows in his relationship with the world and the places that surround him, the spaces of the city in which he lives.
Three bodies meet in different spaces of a district of the city, landscapes chosen during a first mapping of space. The same rendez-vous is repeated transforming itself: three bodies that of the dancer, of the musician and of his cumbersome instrument, a double bass, confront each other and dialogue with each other in the space that is re-created in every moment through their relationship.
